Art with Intent: The Craft of Creating and Continuing Culture - Dec. 2015

Description
-
Roswitha Mackenzie is interviewed by Jean-Paul Sauve about her immigration experience, and her efforts within the local German community to support the London, Ontario German School’s exchange program. She and he talk about coming to Canada with her husband, and their 3 young children, and how she sent her oldest to the German school. She talks about how she ended up teaching Kindergarten at the same school, which is how she heard about the Christkindl Markt.
They discuss her involvement with the Christkindl Markt, while they do needle felting, which is a new craft for her social group. She explains some of the history of the various markets, and how they have adapted to the modern ways of living.
I learned about how many people give a lot of their time so that others can benefit from the uniqueness of their culture, whether learning a language, or decorating a mantel.
